    My favourite part was James Turrell saying "...My thought there is that it's important that you go alone, almost as though you are coming to a ruin, you discovered these things yourself... You go through it and these things are your discovery"
    This man is truly a celestial dreamer, for the sake of it. Amazing

    Fascinating! A friend just went to James Turrell's Green Mountain SkySpace in Colorado at dawn this morning for her 70-something birthday. It was an unparalleled experience, she said.
    Now, I understand a little more about James Turrell's work & hope to have the opportunity to visit a site.

    This has blown me away with it's mathematical complexity and beauty, I've not seen anyone attempt this with this accuracy since the Egyptians, I have total respect for what he's created.

    This place is such a gift to humanity. An infinitely deep well for creative inspiration. What a mark to make to the world, using the Earth itself to paint. Incredible.
